    I got it on a really good deal at Best Buy. It was very easy to set up and I have enjoyed and used it more than I really thought I would. The hands free operation is so very nice. I find myself asking Alexa more and more to play music, the time, make phone calls, etc. The sound quality is amazing. I was so impressed with it, I ordered a second one.

    I was looking for an additional Alexa-enabled device to place in another part of the house, but wasn't interested in spending much money. This fit the bill, and I was pleasantly surprised by the sound quality. I also much prefer the aesthetics of this device to the previous generation of the Dot. Still, I wish they hadn't discontinued the Tap...*sigh*

    This third Echo Dot is intuitive, it can certainly do a lot and there's lots of potential. I purchased two smart plugs, synched them to the dot, and boom! Bedroom lights are on with a short command. There are LOTS of other uses but not many ideas are included in the box - why Amazon doesn't offer an extensive list upon purchase is strange; instead, they continually add more ideas over a period of time which I'm not a fan of, hence 4 instead of 5 stars. Sound quality could be a little bit better, so I gave it a "good" instead of excellent on the quality.

    Echo dot smart speaker is great for listening to music as well as the multitude of other things you can use it for. We use it to control a few things around the house, as well as setting timers and reminders and answering questions. Never have had any problems with it, works except when we have WiFi issues, of course. Amazing little gadget.

    It's Alexa, so if your not worried about her listening to everything you say, the Dot is a very handy thing to have. The sound from Alexa is better than the sound from my radio. It's always in tune and I don't have to adjust anything.

    The only negative I’d read about the dot was the speaker couldn’t compare to the full echo (which is unsurprising considering the size difference). So maybe I was going in expecting the sound to be bad but I was very pleasantly surprised. Music sounds great on the echo and this speech recognition has been fantastic even when I’m around the corner in a different room.

    Plays music for me, tells me jokes, plays games with the kids, gives me the latest news, recipes, I’m 67 years old, I keep her on my nightstand and it makes me feel safe in case I can’t get to my phone, Alexa will make a call for me or drop in on one of my kids so I can talk to them, also she guards my house when I leave, I love it

    Originally purchased one for myself. X-Mas was around the corner. Last minute gifted it to a family member. Was so curious of what I had just given away that I just had to buy another one. From weather to news, traffic and time, ask to play music or even tell you a joke. Endless possibilities with only one device.
